If you run a 300 mi radius of Balto you need a load every day and thats a lot of calling and you really need 6 loads in 5 days to make money or one really whopper paying load that will represent 2 days pay in 1 day.and the rest of the week 1 days pay.
That sounds unrealistic and extremely stressful. I don't think I could pull that off.

There is usually a lot of short runs for steel out of Baltimore. I have met several who pull covered wagons hauling up to New Jersey, etc.,

There is plenty of freight between Balto and Harrisburg
But how are the rates? Any good?
Sonny, you seem to stay on the east coast, do you consistantly get decent rates?
You know the cost living is high pretty much everywhere in the east, can you have a one truck operation, stay on the east coast, and make decent money?
Of course decent money is always open to interpretation but you know, a house, couple of trucks (not class 8, but personal, that's all I have
) a good hobby and a few bad habits. :lol: 8)
